Whitehouse K10 Seat?

[beardyweirdy@me.com_imp]

Hi Light,

I bought Acks K10 Kit which had the Low K10 Seat. I had always preferred the look of the high seat and so ordered one up before Christmas. I much prefer the ride on the higher seat. I'm 6'2" so the low seat made the bike a bit short for me. Also, the short seat is a little hard. The full hight seat is like a sofa and super comfy.

The lines of the tall seat suit the the K10 Tank really well. I prefer it. I've kept the low seat as I may pop it on again in the summer and see if I like the change. The low seat makes the bike look a it more hairy chested and bluff. I do like it but the aesthetic is a bit 80's Greaser bike… ;-)

Adjusting the seat hight really effects the handling of a bike. Often people go for a tall or short seat looking only to change the distance of there feet from there arse, thinking only about comfort. If you raise the weight of the rider by an inch or two it really effect the handling. Theres lots of variables and you have to try it, but the tall K10 seat suited me and my bike better than the short seat. Riding higher made the bike turn quicker with less effort. It livened the bike up. It's just right for me and I love it. The position is much more like a period 70's bike, its very much like the position of a Norton Interstate. It's brilliant two up as well.

I had a ZRX1100 a while ago and bought a high, touring seat for that. It was comfier but it felt like riding a pig on stilts…. it can go either way.

I've attached a few pics…
